* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The game features an original score by Angelo Badalamenti, who scored the majority of DavidLynch's films. Not to mention, an impressive roster of cult classic funk/pop/jazz records.** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SsxOR1wdU8 "Escape or Fight"]]. A truly epic ChaseScene song if one ever existed.** Also all the songs by "Theory of a Deadman"* DisappointingLastLevel: A story, rather than gameplay-based example. The last third of the game's plot is infamous for being ''weird'' at best and incoherent at worst. There's a reason why [[WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation Yahtzee]] calls this phenomenon "Indigo Prophecy syndrome".* EnsembleDarkhorse: Tyler is generally well received by the fans. One of the reasons could be [[spoiler: he leaves the story near the end, before the really crazy stuff happens]].* FridgeBrilliance: If you had just broken up from a long-term relationship and had nothing but milk in the fridge and duck soup in the cupboards, wouldn't YOU want to eat out as much as possible, too? Seems like the perfect setup for Lucas being in the diner, when you think about it.* FridgeLogic:** [[spoiler:After Lucas is revived, his model is re-textured with a paler skin--you know, like a corpse--his breath doesn't fog anymore, and Carla mentions how cold his skin is. So apparently he's lost all body warmth, which suggests they just didn't bother getting his circulatory system back up to standard. Apparently, though, this doesn't affect his ability to knock her up. Completely aside from the InsaneTrollLogic of fixing a man's junk but not his heart, how does he get an erection without effective blood flow?]]** Tyler and Dennis playing basketball in freezing temperatures without even shivering, when at all other times they are wrapped in fleecy coats etc. Even more confusing is the fact that the court is swept of snow when all the rest of the area is a foot or so deep in the stuff.** Related to the above: The game shows the date, time and current temperature whenever a new scene occurs. These can get somewhat outlandish at times, with one endgame sequence apparently occurring with an outside ambient temperature of ''negative 77 degrees Fahrenheit'' (later ports of the game use °F instead of the °C of the original). While it's possible for the human body to survive in these temperatures, doing so for prolonged periods requires much heavier clothing than that worn by the characters in the scene- unless one [[HandWave handwaves]] it with, "It's Chroma magic, I ain't gotta explain it."** Tyler's basketball match chronologically takes place concurrently with Lucas visiting Agatha for the first time - however, the basketball court is overcast but still bright, but Agatha's neighbourhood is dark.** Bellevue Asylum's door system for some reason ''opens'' all of the doors when the power fails. Despite Claire's gameplay there essentially showing us that all of the inmates in there could lash out and hurt someone at the first opportunity, for some reason the doors ''open'' during power outages instead of ''staying shut'' in case someone is in the patient area when the power fails.* HypeBacklash: The game in recent years is getting stronger criticism for its plot, being seen as becoming incoherent and convoluted as it goes on.* {{Narm}}: In the right mindset the last third of the game is ''absolutely hilarious''.** If you watch the bonus clip [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjJHfjFa1CI "The Hidden Dancefloor"]], it becomes impossible to take the game seriously from then on.* NightmareFuel: Lucas being chased by [[spoiler: freakishly large, [[RedEyesTakeWarning red-eyed]] Jaguars in a dense jungle while haunting [[OminousLatinChanting Gregorian choirs]] swell in the background]]. If that doesn't unsettle you even a little you must be MadeOfIron.* PortingDisaster: In a possible case of LyingCreator, the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4 rerelease of this game was advertised as both the recent Remastered Edition ''and'' as a PS2-On-PS4 release, with Quantic Dream ensuring fans that it would be the uncut version of the game. When it actually released in the Playstation Store, however, it turned out to just be the existing, editted PS2 version, upscaled and with trophy support, and it brings with it all the problems it had back on PS2 as well as GUI elements improperly stretched for widescreen.* ScrappyLevel: Either of the two stealth based missions in this game.-->"Don't move or I'll shoot!"* {{Squick}}: [[spoiler:ZOMBIE SEX]].* StrangledByTheRedString: [[spoiler:Lucas and Carla]].* UnfortunateImplications: The entire Asylum sequence gets really hard to look at if you have more than a mass-media level knowledge of how mental institutions are run and the plight of the mentally ill in general. As Pat from ''WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay'' put it; "Run! The crazy people are out! Most of whom probably suffer from non-violent mental illnesses!"* VillainDecay: Some people were unable to take [[spoiler:the Oracle]] seriously after seeing them wearing [[spoiler:his ridiculous Mayan priest outfit.]]----
